This journey begins with an energy.
It comes from the unknown. Meditation.
That is the act of focusing on one specific thing while forgetting the rest.
Unknown thoughts. The something that controls our brain to control our thoughts to control our music. It is not what we know at all.
Expression, believe it or not, is the driving force.
I also have the most beautiful, amazing girlfriend in the world, Alysia Chavez.
And I can never thank my family enough for all of the love and support they've shown.. It mean's a lot.
すべての私の日本の友人を歓迎しなさい。 私は音楽を楽しむことを望む。

What I'm Trying to do With Music
I believe that the most important thing about muisic is to be completely innovative. There are, in my mind, no rules to music which makes it completely open to a man to either slaughter a song, or to make it a masterpiece; and I'm trying my very hardest to make it a masterpiece. Now, with great musicians by my side, I can;and I can have a good time doing it. I'm not saying that there aren't influences on me, because there are, I'm saying that it's important to reach the depths of your soul and discover the enigmas of your mind in order to make a beautiful, ingenious creation.

A Thought, and Belief

Nothing in this world is real.   We humans feel we have the authority to create all we can sense.   The world is what it is; it's not what we've called it.
